Bayern Munich ace open to Arsenal transfer?

Bayern Munich left-back David Alaba has admitted that he could favour a potential move to Arsenal, should they make an approach to sign him in the future.

The Austria international has spent his entire career with the German champions and has racked nearly 350 appearances for the club across all competitions.

Despite this, he has brought up concerns regarding his future with the club by suggesting that he could favour a move to Spain or England in the forthcoming seasons.

He told Bild: "I'm happy in Munich but of course I can imagine seeing something else. Spain, England. Real or Barcelona. Also the big clubs [in England]."

When asked further about his boyhood admiration of Arsenal, Alaba replied in the affirmative, while hinting that he could consider the switch to the Emirates.

He added:"Yes I was [an Arsenal fan as a child]. When you've been Arsenal fan as a kid you will be one your whole life in some way."

Alaba currently has more than two years remaining on his existing deal with Bayern and so far, there has been no indication from the Bundesliga holders that they are considering the prospect of offloading Alaba in the summer.
